Earnings Call Notes $ASTS

Messaging is getting more obvious now with the repeated references to "power on orbit." They are setting the stage here for AI. This also explains a lot of the Meta visits, etc.
That's all you really need to hear re: US Government activities. This company is now protected.
Gradually, and then suddenly. Think 6 months out. That's where the market will go. Image

I reread Virginia Redistricting case. I do not understand Virginia's argument at all. I thought they were arguing that the Court mis-applied federal law. It did not. It used federal cases as persuasive authority. Folks, that is not a federal law question. It is purely State. Image

The majority doesn't even cite to the federal election law definition of election. I think this is a real misread of the opinion. Bad look.

One of the Russian GPS spoofers around St Petersburg sports what looks like an aim function.

There is a realistic possibility this has been used to drive Ukrainian attack drones into NATO territory.

So far, I only have two anecdotes to show for it, data collection ongoing.

🧵 Image
Last months have seen some drones stray into eg Finland, Estonia and latest Latvia.

While it is an obvious expected function of a military spoofer to send a drone astray, to my knowledge it has not been shown to happen.

I am not showing that, yet. But there are circumstances.

Pomerantsev: Ukraine has all of society approaches to cognitive defense. It is way ahead.

When talking with partners, you have to be careful not to give anyone a sense that you're intervening in domestic politics. If you're dealing in truth, you have a duty to release it. 1/
Pomerantsev: Russia is aggressive inside Europe with assassinations, sabotage and cyber attacks. Some countries get intimidated, while others feel emboldened to act. The more aggressive Russia becomes, the more people see it as fair game to strike back. 2/
Pomerantsev: Americans accused anyone working on disinformation and media literacy of being part of a censorship industrial complex. European organizations monitoring disinformation have been sanctioned by the US. The Americans own tech companies that suppress voices. 3X

The topic—Human-AI Mind Merge: Categories and Methods

Sharing my Grok conversation today for those who may find it enlightening. I messed at the end of Q&A chatting on unrelated things so I will be sharing my interaction via screenshots.
2/10
For interested laypeople like myself, I'm highlighting technologies long deployed in classified settings—by militaries, intelligence agencies, PMCs, and some corporations—some of which are now entering public use and mainstream discussion.

Why It Matters: “The need to use human augmentation may ultimately be dictated by national interest. Countries may need to develop and use human augmentation or risk surrendering influence, prosperity and security to those who will.” (This is just but one quote from this UK report from May 2021)

My goal is to help those interested understand what's being implemented and decisions being made for us without our knowledge or consent.

I hope you enjoy the conversation. I hope it inspires you to have serious talks with your loved ones and to reach out to your congressional representatives with any questions or concerns about legislation that could impact you. ~ Mark 5:36 Image

🚨 Virginia Democrats have asked the Supreme Court to allow the legislature’s proposed congressional map to be used in the 2026 elections after the Virginia Supreme Court struck down the constitutional amendment authorizing the redraw. Image
Image
The Commonwealth argues the Virginia Supreme Court misread federal election law and, under Moore v. Harper, exceeded the ordinary bounds of judicial review by disregarding the Virginia Constitution's text and overriding both the General Assembly and Virginia voters.
The application asks Chief Justice Roberts to enter an immediate administrative stay and then stay the Virginia Supreme Court's ruling pending a petition for certiorari and, if review is granted, until the Supreme Court resolves the case on the merits.

🚨EXCLUSIVE: 🚨 Woman Convicted of Forging Medical Credentials and Fraudulently Treating Patients - Including Children - Now Running TPUSA-Connected K-12 School after Name Change and Zero Transparency Regarding Her Felony Record 🚨

Some of you may remember my exclusive reporting on Hood County in the past. A man was arrested for posting a meme. Well, buckle up buttercup. Now we have more coming out of Hood County and it’s not good.

Hood County- Granbury, Texas - A woman by the name of “Shawna” has recently launched a K-12 school in Granbury, Texas. The school also appears publicly connected to TPUSA Faith organizing circles through local Hood County faith and political event materials listing Shawna Keomisy as “Director TP Faith Hub of Hood County.”

Federal court records have now surfaced, involving the woman identified as the school’s founder and head administrator.

Public records reviewed by me and my team show multiple name variations associated with Shawna, including Shawna Michelle Gunter, Shawna Michelle Keomisy, Shawna Michelle Oconnell/O’Connell, Shawna Boswell, Shawna M. Gunter, Shawna M. Oconnell, and Shawna Oconnor Gunter.

I then matched this with Maryland issued social security information.

Turning Point Academy of Granbury publicly identifies “Shawna” as Founder and Head of School.

Federal court records show that Shawna Michelle Gunter pleaded guilty in a federal criminal case involving wire fraud and aggravated identity theft in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland.

According to federal records and plea materials, Gunter falsely represented herself as a physician assistant! And used altered or fabricated medical credentials, obtained employment at a pediatric medical practice, and provided medical care without a valid medical license or proper medical training.

Federal filings state the conduct involved HUNDREDS of pediatric patients and prescriptions.

The records further state that Gunter fraudulently treated patients - including infants and children - while operating under false medical credentials. Between July 5, 2013 and August 18,2013, Gunter worked as a physician's assistant under the direct supervision of Dr. Ramirez.

Between August 19, 2013 and August 29, 2013, Gunter saw pediatric patients without any direct supervision. During this time she diagnosed and treated over 200 infants and children, including for sick visits, ADHD follow-ups, newborn visits and routine physicals. During she issued over 400 prescriptions for controlled substances.

Court records show the federal case proceeded under United States v. Shawna Michelle Gunter. Sentencing filings show a federal sentencing hearing was ultimately scheduled before U.S. District Judge Richard D. Bennett.

Federal records also indicate the court previously expressed concern about community safety prior to sentencing and referenced a documented history of deceptive conduct tied to the case.

According to my sources, parents were not informed about the founder’s federal criminal history before enrolling their children in Shawna’s school.

It appears that TPUSA does NOT complete criminal-background checks for their leadership. All leadership, staff, volunteers, and anyone with access to children should be highly vetted!

TPUSA needs to address this. I will be reaching out as a follow up.

I hate to be all dramatic but this account is currently being set up by X to be deleted on false grounds.🧵👇
Lets start at the beginning. In 2024 I joined X on a different account @SLAVAUA2022NAFO, my phone number or e-mail were never used on X before, nor had I had a previous account. Without even posting anything I was banned for banevasion.
I'd been moderator on NAFO Reddit and we did a hurt on Russian propaganda. Apparently my name entering X which was the same had triggered vatniks. Long story short X had to revoke the ban because I was not guilty. Yet they admitted keeping me shadowbanned because...no reason.

1/ Yuri Kozarenko, the high-profile Russian drone developer who was arrested last Friday on fraud charges, is being accused of passing off Chinese products as his own. Other Russian UAV developers say that his firm was notorious for "brazen relabeling of products from China." ⬇️
2/ The video above shows a drone claimed by Kozarenko's company to be its 'Quadcopter Krechet' model. It's actually a Chinese-made Autel EVO MAX 4T, which has been relabelled as a Russian-made product without even any cosmetic modifications to disguise its origins.
3/ Kozarenko's arrest (see the thread below) is being greeted with glee by Russian UAV specialists who have been accusing his company, Transport of the Future (TB), of fraud for at least the past year.
